The season of celebrations continues in the family of Governor Henry Seriake Dickson of Bayelsa State as his wife, the First Lady, Dr. Rachael Dickson, just put to bed in the United States of America.

“She was delivered of a quadruplet; a bouncing baby boy and three beautiful baby girls. Mother and children are doing well,” Daniel Iworiso-Markson, Chief Press Secretary to Bayelsa State Governor, said in a statement issued Friday afternoon in Yenagoa, the state capital.

“This is particularly good news for the family and Bayelsans because this bundle of joy is coming after many years of praying and waiting upon the Lord,” Iworiso-Markson further said.

“Governor Dickson thanks friends, family members and Bayelsans for their prayers and support and enjoins them to continue to pray for the family,” he added.
